Beach Hotels in Bohol Island

I had a wonderful stay at Bluewater Panglao Resort. It’s a busy, well-run commercial resort with beautiful, new rooms that are spotless and cleaned daily. The air conditioning works perfectly, and the bathrooms are spacious, with both a shower and a bath. The rooms are also impressively soundproof, making it easy to relax. The reception staff were very friendly and helpful on arrival, setting a great tone for the stay. There are two large, beautiful pools and a private beach. Although the beach is a little rocky, you can spot some small sea life, which is lovely. The breakfast and lunch menus are excellent, and the overall atmosphere is welcoming and professional. It’s just a short scooter ride to Alona Beach, yet the hotel itself is peaceful and away from the busy tourist area. Overall, a fantastic stay and highly recommended.

An impeccable hotel in a quiet yet central location. It's a ten-minute walk to a lively restaurant street, and you can book island excursions right from the beach. The rooms have a lovely tropical vibe, and the breakfast is fantastic. Haidee and Marlon at the front desk were very welcoming and helpful.

The hotel left a very pleasant impression. The grounds are beautifully decorated for the New Year holidays, and the atmosphere is calm and cozy. The staff are attentive and friendly; check-in was smooth and hassle-free. The room has everything needed for a comfortable stay. Slippers, bathrobes, a small hairdryer, a tea set, a mini-bar, and toothbrushes are provided. All amenities are replenished daily, and housekeeping is regular and thorough. Breakfasts are substantial and varied. There are seasonal fruits, good coffee, scrambled eggs, as well as some Filipino national dishes. Vegetarian options and separate items for children are available, which is very convenient. The location is unique. There's practically nothing nearby, but that's a big plus. Thanks to this, the beach is quiet, uncrowded, and very peaceful, perfect for a relaxed and secluded getaway.

We had a pleasant stay at Cliffside Resort, a place that truly stands out for its stunning view and its very peaceful atmosphere, perfect for relaxing and unwinding. The room was clean, although a few small details could be improved, such as the drawers, which were not properly cleaned. Most of the staff were very welcoming and smiling, which created a warm and friendly environment. A few team members were a bit less friendly, so the experience felt slightly inconsistent, but overall the staff were lovely. The food was very good, and so were the cocktails, which made our meals enjoyable. However, the timing of the service really needs improvement. It became almost funny: one of us would get their meal, eat it calmly… and the other would be served 30 minutes later — sometimes almost an hour later. It’s a strange and quite awkward situation, because you don’t really get to eat together. Back in France, this would never happen, so it was really surprising. Despite this issue, we overall had a positive stay, with an exceptional setting and lots of potential for an even better experience.

This hotel's service is the kind that ruins your day. I was asked for my room number three times. The first two times were fine, and the inquiries were at least polite. But once, when my child was playing in the pool, a male attendant came over and very sternly asked for my room number. His look and expression made me feel like he thought I was some outsider trying to sneak into their pool! It was incredibly offensive! To top it off, our child cut their toe in the pool. When I mentioned it to them that evening, there wasn't even a single 'sorry.' I initially thought about sending an email to complain, but then decided it wasn't worth the hassle. I definitely don't recommend this hotel! The food was also bad; even the butter at breakfast was some unfamiliar local Filipino brand.

The main advantage of this hotel is its location – close to the beach and the city center, yet set back from the main road. This means it's quiet and peaceful, but everything is still within walking distance. The rooms are spacious, and the linens and towels are clean. Hot water, a fridge, air conditioning, and a hairdryer – all the modern conveniences are there. Room cleaning is available upon request. The pool is clean, and the grounds are constantly maintained. Breakfast is à la carte and quite filling. There's a slight sewage smell in the bathroom, but we somehow managed to get used to it. Everything else is very good for the price.

The hotel is located near the beach, as well as many cafes and restaurants. The hotel itself has two wings, one of which has a nice pool. The staff was friendly. I would stay here again.

The photos don't reflect what you'll actually get; they must be old. We had an 'enhanced' room, and I dread to imagine what the standard ones are like. The room was tiny, and you had to walk through the restaurant to get to it. You could hear the kitchen working and music from outside. But the biggest issue was the bathroom: it has a window that looks out onto the main corridor. My tall husband confirmed you can see everything if you peek in, especially if the shower curtain isn't fully closed! Plus, the room's 'terrace' also opens into the corridor. On the beach outside, they're building stairs for access, so if you're coming soon, be prepared for construction work. We stayed one night and moved to another hotel. We tried to cancel the remaining days, but the hotel wouldn't approve the cancellation.

Perfect location for a self trip on island. The hotel has a nice small restaurant and coffee shop. Food not the best, but it is okay for island standard. Beautiful view of the sea and the island all the time. Hotel has two nice swimming pool, feels very nice at the end of the day. Hotel rooms is looks and feels old, not have hairdryer in the room, need ask for hair dryer in reception. Not a big problem, but strains a bit. In the case if hotel will renovate hotel rooms, it would be strong 4 star hotel. Very nice, friendly and helpful staff. Guard always help for park car and call a vehicle.

The hotel is located in an isolated place, so it is very convenient to rent a bike or a tricycle to get to the town or to the nearest restaurant. There is a small private beach, but there are a lot of plants and a lot of boats. I loved the service - you can call the massage or manicure master, grab a drink at the beach bar, lie down near the beach and enjoy the service. They also provided me a bike rent with delivery. The room is in zebra style - very nice and comfy. The only thing I disliked - the room is very small, it is basically tiny, though it had a terrace which a view of the hotel stairs which I found useless.
